Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular reference to privacy and noise and disturbance
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area, including the Colville Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed roof terrace would create unacceptable privacy harm and noise disturbance to neighbouring residents at No 33 Lonsdale Road due to its immediate proximity to their windows, conflicting with Policy CL5 of the Local Plan 2019.

Plan policies cited: Policy CL5, Policy CL1, Policy CL2, Policy CL3, Policy CL6, Policy CL8, Policy CL9, Policy CL11
